Hi Goerge, I read some place to cut 2 ft long pieces of 4" pvc pipe in half and then stick them in the shoreline at an " \ " angle towards the deep water in 12 - 18 inches of water to give them someplace to spawn and hide. I did this a couple of years ago and until I put bass in the pond when I fed the catfish you could almost walk in the fatheads. I still have lots of them in the pond.
